Abstract
Subclavian artery aneurysms (SAAs) may be clinically asymptomatic or present with symptoms ranging from pain to upper limb ischemia, posterior circulation ischemia, or, most seriously, life-threatening rupture and hemorrhage. In recent years, endovascular treatment has been extensively employed as an alternative for treating SAAs with favorable anatomy, especially in patients who are not candidates for surgery. We report a case of successful endovascular treatment of SAA with coil embolization and stent graft. The follow-up examinations at 1Â year showed good patency of the subclavian artery with no endoleak.
